ABOUT


Call me Len. I am a stay-at-home wife and mom who’s devoted in satisfying my husband's and my daughter's taste buds.  I actually named this site after my mother, since I owe to her my love for cooking. She cooked fabulous food that you will definitely want to ask for more. I told to myself, I want to cook like my mother.  After getting married and being away from my family for some time, I found my nanay’s recipes as string that connects us together. With love and inspiration, I ended up compiling different recipes which I will try to upload in this website as often as I could. I am not an expert on cooking but I am learning so much each and every day. 

It’s really not easy to live in other country especially when your 6813 miles away. In my case, I don’t work (tough time) so, if I don’t keep myself busy around the house I will end up fat or insane. I don’t want to be either of the two. Hopefully, my cooking will save my sanity but not make me stout.


Once in a while I will be expressing my thoughts about certain food, drinks and different products that I bought and caught my attention. I will be having few confessions as a woman, friend, wife and mother.

As much as I wanted to cook, I also love to eat out with my small family and friends. Living in Ireland gives me the chance to know and be aware of other cuisines. When I visit a particular restaurant, I never forget to take snaps of what we had and mark the taste in my head. And I want to share those with you.

I hope that you will join me in my adventure of cooking, eating and shopping. Don't forget to say grace before every bite. God bless us all.
